| Prices of Flour and Other Necessities
Have Been Higher
With the advance of high-grade
barrel, we are told
that flour has -risen to “the highest
price since the Civil War.” It thas
really reached a higher price than it
brought during the Civil War, for
the high ‘rate which then prevailed
was expressed in terms of paper
money, and at one time during the
war.a dallar in gold was worth $2.85
in paper, In terms of gold, the high-
est price attained by flour during the
Civil War was $4.90 a barrel. We
are, therefore, now paying in gold
twice the price for flour. that was
paid in the Civil War. The present
price neitwer of flour, wheat nor cot-
ton is a record price. In 1795 flour
sold at $12 per barrel, and in 1796 at
$16. A hundred years ago, in 1817,
it was $14.75 a barrel. Wheat is now
at $1.83 per bushel, December deliv-
ery, but in 1854 wheat brought $2.21
per bushel, in 1855 $2.43, io 1866
$2.09, in 1869 $2.05, gold. In the
meantime, wages -are very much
higher than they were in either one

wages, were much greater than they
are now.—Boston Transcript,

A TALK ON RHEUMATISM
Telling How to Actually Cure This
Common and Painful
Malady
This article is for the man or wo-
man who suffers from rheumatism
who wants to be cured, not merely
relieved—but actually cured. The
most the rheumatic sufferer can hope
for in rubbing something on the ten-
der, aching joint is a little relief, No
lotion or liniment «ever did or can
make a cure. The rheumatic poison
is rooted in the blood. Therefore
rheumatism can only be cured when
this poisonous acid is driven out of
the blood. Any doctor will tell you
this is true. If you want something
| that will go right to the root of the
trouble in the blood take Dr. Wil-
liams’ Pink Pills. They make new,
rich blood which drives out the pois-
onous acid and cures rheumatism to
Stay cured. The truth of these state-
ments has been proved in thousands
of cases throughout Canada, and the
following cure is a striking instance.
Mr. Henry Smith, St. Jerome, Que.,
says: “For upwards of a year I was
a victim of rheumatism in a most
painful form, The trouble was locat-
ed in my legs and for a long time I
was so bad that I could not walk.
The suffering which I endured can
only be imagined by those who have
been similarly afflicted, Doctors’
treatment did not help me and then I
began trying other remedies, but with
Finally I was ad-
viséd to try Dr, Williams’ Pink*Pills,
and although I had begun to lose
faith in medicine I finally decided to
give the pills a trial. I am very
grateful now that I did so, for after
taking eight boxes of the pills the
trouble completely disappeared, I
was free from pain and could walk
as well as ever I did in my life. I
have since taken the pills occasion-
ally as a precautionary measure, and
I cannot speak too highly in their
favor.”
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills cure all
the troubles due to’ weak, watery
blood or broken down nerves. You
can get these pills through any dealer
in medicine, or by mail postpaid, at
50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50

Canadian’s Smart Rejoinder
Travelling recently in the United
States, a Canadian banker was ob-
served to occupy a seat in a com-
partment in which a German was
loudly boasting of what Germany
had achieved during the war. The
Canadian was furious, but kept his
temper, and asked the German if he
were a soldier,
“Yes,” said Fritz. “Then why
don’t you go back and fight,” asked
the banker, “I can’t get there,” was
the reply. “Well,” said the Cana-
dian, “I’m going to England next
week, and there's nothing to stop me,
Germany doesn’t seem to have gain-
ed much if it is impossible for a Ger-
man to cross the seas and fight for
his Fatherland,”

Prominent Frenchmen Refer to the

Our French friends speak of our
share in the joint victory with a warm
and generous enthusiasm which, we
can assure them, we appreciate and
return. M. Poincare, in a message to
King George, speaks of “the brilliant
successes won by the British Army.”
The Echo de Paris offers our glori-
ous army the “grateful and heartful
homage” of France. General Zurlin-
den declares that France will “never
forget” our effort; M. Barthou de-
scribes our soldiers as “true broth-

that “Britain with her man-power and
material is winning the war,” and
that “the day when we entered the

Is Your Home Safe ?
Many of Canada’s Fires Are in
Dwelling Houses
The fire record for 1915 shows that
of 1,625 fires reported, 676 were in
the homes of our people. The great
majority of these dwelling-house fires
occur at night, when the lives of the
occupants are endangered.
From the 676 homes the greater
portion of the families were turned
out at night in wintry weather. In
these fires, 141 lives were lost.
The chief causes of these home
fires are: Carelessness in allowing de-
fective chimneys exist; careless-
ness in the use of matches; careless-
ness» in*many other--ways. ----- 5
Householders should see that’ the
heating equipment is fire-safe, that
there are no cracks in the chimney
to allow sparks to enter the attic; that
furnace pipes are thoroughly clean
and at a safe distance from. wood-
work; that stoves, ranges and stove-
and all
‘surrounding woodwork protected,
and that
lamps and lanterns are in
good condition.
Carelessness with matches caused
69 fires last yéar; overheated stoves
and furnaces, 51; defective and
overheated chimneys, pipes, etc., 62;
electrical defects, 55. These causes
are all easily ayoided and should be
guarded against in future,
Homes should be made reasonably
firesafe by taking the simplest neces-
sary precautions. Safety First is as
essential in the home as at work.

It would not be surprising to learn
that the falling-off in the morale of
the German troops is largely due to
dietary causes, Fat plays an import-

the human body, but in renewing the
energy which is being constantly dis-
sipated in the form of radiant heat,
Metabolized fat is the storage bat-
tery of human energy, and with the

ditions, the battery is exceedingly
well charged, If one regiment weie

Oldest Stone Image
Ancient Relic Discovered Recently
in Japan
An ancient and ownerless edifice
standing in a village called Shiki-
shima, in Shiki district, Nara prefec-
ture, has been found to contain a
number of rare artistic treasures in
the shape of antique Buddhist im-
ages, says the Herald of Asia. The
discovery of these rarities, one of
which is believed to be the oldest of
the kind in Japan, is due to Mr. Se-
kino, doctor of engineering; Mr. Ma-
tano, chief of the Imperial Museum
at Tokio, and Mr, Niino, of the Nara
Art Gallery. They are of the opinion
that the tottering edifice is none
other than a temple called the Sckiiji
which was built in the Nara perio
(710-794 A.D.). The stone image, the
centre figure, as it were, of the edi-|
fice, represents the Yakushi Buddha
and is four feét in height, more than
three feet in breadth and three-fifths| Dr. | Pierce’s Common

It was’ probably made some 2,100

respondent. The head man of the
district is now trying to have it in-

Improvement of Game Laws
Prohibition of the Sale of Game By
Several Provinces
That the trend of game protective
legislation throughout Canada is dis-
tinctly toward restricting, and ulti-
mately prohibiting the operations of],
market hunters, is clearly manifested
by recent amendments to the game
laws of Ontario, Manitoba and Sas-
katchewan, In Ontario the sale of
water-fowl and of quail, partridge,
woodcock and snipe is prohibited un-
til the autumn of 1917, Manitoba
and Saskatchewan have gone much
farther and the effect of their pres-
ent laws is to prohibit the open sale
of practically all game in any season
of the year.
The market hunter is the recogniz-
ed guerrilla of destruction with re-
gard to wild life, and the traffic in
dead game is responsible for at least
three-quarters of the slaughter that
has reduced the game birds of North
America to a mere remnant of their
former abundance. Nearly all the
provinces of Canada have placed re-
strictions upon ‘the market gunner,
by prohibiting the sale of game en-
tirely, or during certain seasons, Un-
fortunately, in most instances, such
laws have been enacted only as an
extreme resort to protect depleted
species from virtual extinction, In
view of the disastrous and inevitable
results of allowing the market hunter
to carry on his destructive occupa-
tion, the, logical procedure is to an-
ticipate and prevent the. result by
prohibiting market gunning before it
has succeeded in HE hoy our splen-

in bad shape. I got ~ I had to go to

I had three of the best doctors I could get
but it just seemed nothing was going to
help me. I had almost given up. I
thought I would never be any better and
was willing to give up and die rather than
suffer as I was. A neighbor of mine told
me of Dr. Pierce’s wonderful remedies
and I decided to use them. My husband
bought me six bottles of ‘Favorite Pre--

I felt better. In less than six weeks I
was out of bed, and in less than six months
I was cure and have been well ever since.
Do all my own work. I have raised three
daughters, two are married and have

are healthy, so are their children. I am
sure it was all on account of my having

But she was not stupid; and quick
on the heels of this impulse there
came to her the consciousness that
this would be unavailing. Lord Moor-
hampton would listen to her, would
perhaps be influenced by her argu-
ments. But by and by he would
again be subjected to other influences
stronger than any she could bring to
bear; he would be persuaded and ca-
joled by his wife, who would be un-
der the influence of her brother. And
then not only would all the good done
by Mabin’s arguments be undone,
but she would perhaps find that she
herself had been made suspect in’ his
eyes.
There was silence for a few min-
utes, and then the sound of a gong}
reached their ears.
“Dear me,” said Lord Moorhamp-
ton, glancing at the clock which stood
tall and massive, between. two book-
cases. “That's the first dinner bell.”
Mabin sprang to her feet.
“Lord Moorhampton, will you
think me rude if I go away at once,
tonight?” she said.
“1 shouldn't think it rude.
incapable of rudeness. But I can’t
allow it,” he said gently, “I will go
up to town with you tomorrow, and
then, if you decide that you would
preter not to came back here, I must
ow to your decision, although it will
cause me very great regret. I have
never had such an amanuensis, nor
can I hope ever to get one so good
again.”
But Mabin shook her head.
“T should like to go now, please,”
said she.
“That I cannot allow. You must
at least dine with us first.”
“Oh, no, no,” said she, shrinking
back, “how can I? I have nothing
with me but the clothes I have on.”
“That is a difficulty which Lady
Moorhampton’s maid can very soon
fret over,” said he indulgently. “Come
with me, and we will put matters on
a satisfactory basis without delay.”
He made her take his arm, and led
her, timid and shrinking, out of the
room, along the passage and into the
hall,
Captain Dalmaine was whispering
to Lady Moorhampton, who was on
her way upstairs; she was leaning
over the banisters, and he was stret-
ching up to speak to her. Joe Wright
was standing, with his feet planted
wide apart, his head bent, his hands
in his pockets, and a cigar in his
mouth, on the great rug before the}
fire. He had that curious crumpled
look, that appearance of having been
held under a waterfall, which express-
es acute demoralization.
He glanced up and frowned surlily

“Thank you,” murmured the girl.
“But you must excuse me. I prefer
not to dine with you. I shouldn't feel
at all comfortable, should 1?”
She had recovered a trace of her
girlish spirit, the very excess of Lady
Moorhampton’s insolence restoring
her self-confidence. After all, what
was Lady Moorhampton to her thet
she should care what she said or what
she did! There were other things of
far more consequence to worry one-
self about!
“If you would really rather dine by
yourself, why, of course, we must let
you do so,” said Lord Moorhampton,
“However, I hope you may be induc-
ed to change your mind. You know

him rather sharply.
+i “All right, I’m coming,”

And he went.
But before doing so, he managed
to convey to Mabin, by uplifting of
the eyebrows and drawing down of
the mouth, that he was going away
from her against his will.

“My dear Edith,” he called out to
his wife, “I want you to hand Miss
Wrest over to the care of your
maid, and to get her to find her some-
thing in the way of a dinner dress
for tonight, until her own luggage
arrives.”
This speech cast dismay upon all
his hearers, but especially upon Ma-
bin, who uttered a little moan of des-
peration at the thought that she was
to be imprisoned at Heath Hill
against her will,
Lady Moorhampton, as was to be
expected, flashed down upon her hus-
band and the girl an indignant look.
“Oh, certainly,” she said with with-
ering coldness, “Miss Wrest is wel-
come to anything I have in the way
of dress or jewellery.”
Her tone was of set purpose insult-
ing as her words. Mabin shrank back
and Lord Moorhampton spoke quick-

“Well,” said he with a_ smile,
speaking as if a great weight had
been lifted from his mind, “I, think
we have arrived at a conclusion which
will satisfy you, Miss Wrest.”
Mabin stiil looked anxious, for she
saw on. Lady Moorhampton’s face,
under the forced smile she wore, a
look which was hard, cold and dis-
concerting. ;
“Lady Moorhampton and I,” he
went on, “are both extremely anxious
that the boy should come here. She
is kind enough to say that she de-
sires no delay to make ourselves cer-
tain about him, She, as well as I
wishes to see him here at once. Ev-
erything can be cleared up after-
wards. We can trust my solicitor
with that.”
Now to Mabin this news was dis-
quieting in the extreme. Knowing as
she did that this new attitude on Lady
Moorhampton’s part was the result
of consultation with her brother, and
aware that by this show of amiabil-
ity towards Ciprian’s child both bro-
ther and sister counted upon recover-
ing their place in Lord Moorhamp-
ton’s good graces, the girl foresaw
nothing but peril in the new arrange-

and holding the side of the settle,

and wife in imploring. tones, “till you

All the gentlemen felt uncomfort-

undertone perceptible, was going on
between the ladies. Then
Moorhampton asked Mabin,
hastily, if she would come

She excused herself, saying that
she was very tired, and Lady Moor-

should do just as she liked, adding in
an artificially swect tone “that she
must please herself in every way, and
go to rest whenever she felt inclined
to.”
Then they all left her, but Captain
Dalmaine lingered behind the others,
to say in a kind tone, while Lady

whispers with her brother, and Lord

of October. The chief item in the
record is the increase of Pits
by half a million pounds of butter, of
20 per cent, as compared with the
eriod of last year.
During the season the co-operative
creameries had a total output of
2,500,000 pounds of butter. Sixty-
seven cars of butter have been
shipped to points outside the pro-
vince, while the local trade took care
of about four carloads per month.
There were 9,200 farmers who sup-
plied milk and cream to the cream-
eries,
A new venture proved to be a suc-
cess. This was a trial shipment of
butter to England from Alberta,
Manitoba an Saskatchewan, the
provinces combining to make a car-
load of butter, which went to Man-
chester, England. This shipment of
butter was made direct from. Regina
and contained butter from Manitoba
and Alberta as well as that furnished
by. the creameries of Saskatchewan.
All the details in connection with this
shipment were looked after person-
ally by Mr. Wilson, and it was parti-
cularly pleasing to him to find out
that the butter had been well re-
ceived in England; in. fact, a demand
has been created and there are great
possibilities for a future market in
Me Pe:
he Dominion Dairy of Regina in
1916 will have a total output of about
half a million pounds of butter.
Mr. Wilson states that in the de-
velopment of markets the interests
of the producer and those of the con-
sumer had been given equal consid-
eration. He believes the policy of ex-
tension of markets cannot be served
to best advantage from the view-
point of the farmer by taking advan-
tage of an unusual situation, and that
is the exacting of a last cent from
the consumer. The dollars and
cents of the producer are those of the
consumer. In the policy of exten-
sion for future markets it is his wish
to secure the best possible for the
producer.

Saskatchewan are being perfected
at the present time.
The mode of procedure which it is
proposed to follow will be to form a
parent company, the stock of which
will be given to the members who
hold stock in the sixteen co-opera-
tive creamery companies, which it
lif proposed to amalgamate. The
abilities and assets. of the sixteen
companies would be assumed by the
new organization which would be
under one management. In pointin
out the advantages of the proposal,
Mr. Wilson said that profitable mar-
kets could be better maintained,
jmore favorable legislation secured,
| and a greater prestige given to the
one company than could be secured
_by the sixteen creameries operatin
separately. The combined strengt
of the companies would also lead to
more generous and larger borrowing
powers for financing the industry.
| “An organization already exists,”
said Mr, Wilson, “whose avowed ob-
ject is to undermine the co-opera-
tive creameries and union would
give the members greater resisting
powers.” He said that he did not
anticipate any radical changes in
the policy of the business - if the
amalgamation was consummated, and
as each creamery would be able to
to a convention at
| which the details would be discuss-
ed, the members would have com-

Saluting the Quarter-Deck
Ancient Naval Custom Which Is
Rigidly Adhered To
One of the first things taught the
naval recruit before he goes on board
his ship is that he must “salute the
quarter deck” when passing on to it
when on board, and that he must
salute at the gangway as he passes
on board his ship at any time, whe-
ther from a boat or direct from the
shore.
This is an ancient custom and is
carried out by every officer and man
whether he be the commander-in-
chief in his own flagship or the ship
cook’s youngest boy assistant,
It survives from the time when a
the palm of the hand instead of be-
ing turned to the front is kept turned
towards the face, the forefinger near-
. touching the peak of the cap. in
¢ with the eyebrow. As in the .
oe the “off hand” is used for sal-
uting.
The “able-bodied seaman” (of
A.B.) is equivalent in rank to the pri-
vate in the army, and is expected to _
salute all officers (naval and military)
in uniform, the same remarks @ ny

should salute naval officers when in

Sir George Foster Urges
That Canada and the whole Em-
pire should prepare for peace condi-
tions in the same manner that they
prepared for war was tlhe argument
yeeros by Sir George Foster, Min-
ster of Trade and Commerce, before
the Canadian Club of Montreal.
Sir George gaye an address full of
ideas and ideals, his concluding ad-
vice being that the whole people
should unite in work for peace condi-
tions, to mect the entirely new
hases of life that would be evolved,
just as they had_ united to produce
men and materials for war. His main
idea was that the whole country must
organize then to produce, and pro-
duce for useful ends, just as it had
organiezed now for destructive ends,
and to this end he appealed to the
business men of the country to unite
patriotically for the general good. He
argued that with the changed condi-
tions after the war only increased
production could meet the situation
—mere “swapping” in trade would
mot do it, nor would the making of

money in brokers’ offices, or the
criminal boosting of real-estate. It
was orily the real production of real
values from the invaluable resources
of the country that could save the
situation.
Sir ‘George pvinted out that when
peace came there would be hundreds
of thousands. of Canadians returning
—men who had béen taken from pro-
ductive Ao destructive work, while
very many of these would be unfitted
for future work,
With between thirty and forty mil-
lions of soldiers engaged in destroy-
ing the accumulations of the world’s
tions caused by such work, Sir
George argued that every condition
of life would be changed when the
knell of war sounded, and peace once
more reigned, and it was time people
realized this.
“You have given freely and gener-
ously for war,” he concluded. “Pre-
pare to give just as unselfishly
the works of peace.”

Using Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food
A dead nerve cell can never be re-
placed, In this way it is different to
other cells of the human body. But
feeble, wasted nerve. cells can be re-
stored, and herein lies hope.
In this fact is also a warning to
take note of. such symptoms as
sleeplessness and loss of energy and
ambition, and restore the’ vitality to
the nervous system before some form
of helplessness results,
Nervous prostration, locomotor
ataxia and paralysis are the natufal
results of neglecting to keep the
nerves in healthful condition. The
aise of Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food when
you suspect there is something wrong
will soon restore vitality to the ner-
vous system, and thereby prevent
scrious developments.

Varieties of Alfalfa
A bulletin entitled “Alfalfa Grow-

ray, ' of Macdonald College, gives,
among other things, the results of
some interesting tests regarding var-
icties of this desirable fodder plant,
which may be grown in that prov-
ince. During the last five years tests
have been made of over one hundred
varieties from America, Europe and
Asia, Of this number less than half
a dozen have proven suitable for
Quebec, the remainder being winter
killed from fifty to one hundred per
cent, The varieties which have pro-
ven hardy and which are obtainable
commercially are Grimm, Ontario,
Variegated and Baltic. These have
proven hardy under the severest tests
and have come through winters un-
der conditions which red clover and

The Bread Profits
But while the, flour contained in a
bushel of wheat ‘costs the Vancouver
baker $2.20, and the householder a
little more for retail profits, the fam-
ily which buys bread pays seven and
three- sanehihe to eight cents per
pound for a little over sixty pounds
of bread made from that quantity,
This means $4.35 to $4.80 per bushel.
That is to.say, it has cost as much to
turn this flour into bread and deliver
it to the consumer as it did to raise
the wheat, carry it to the mill, grind!
it into flour and carry the flour to the
coast, The bakers tell us that their
profits are not large, and this may be
true, but the housekeeper ought to
know that she can earn as much by
making her own bread as the farmer,

Quality of Wheat
Why Hard Wheat Is Always Pre-
ferred by Millers
Millers prefer wheat that is hard
and flinty to a wheat that is made
up of kernels that are white and
starchy in cross-section, Kernels of
the latter type are softer and more
easily crushed and are spoken of as
“soft wheat.” A considerable re-
duction in price is often made when
this “soft” wheat is offered for sale.
Dr. W. P. Headden, of the Color-
ado Agricultural Experiment. Station,
has succeeded in determinin the
cause of this trouble and sive the
sata which every farmer can sup-
y.
In brief, the cause of “yellow-
berry” is a high percentage of pot-
ash in the soil in proportion to the
available nitrogen, The remedy is
to keep the nitrogen contents of the
soil as high as possible without in-
creasing the potash. This may be
done by the addition of nitrates, the
rotation of crops in which alfalfa or
some other legume is used, and by
‘proper. tillage,

Two Kinds of Peace
Peace “Palk in Germany and in Great
Britain
Marine the past month or two
there has been a great deal of talk
about peace in high quarters in Eng-
land as well as in Germany. But be-
tween the things that have been said
in England and the things that have
been said i in Germany there is a sharp
contrast in two essential respects:
In the first place, what the German
statesmen’s thoughts are centred
upon is the possibility of bringing
the war to an end _by coming to
terms with their enemies in one way
or another without fighting the war
out to the bitter end; whereas the
men at the head of affairs in Eng-
land — Asquith, Lloyd George, Grey
—are absolutely unbending in their
resolution to entertain no proposals
of peace except such as would be pre-
dicated on the decisive defeat of
Germany. And secondly, the Ger-
man preoccupation is wholly with
the question of the ending of this
war, and has no concern. with the
Prevention of future wars except in
so far as this may be implied in the
demanding of terms of peace which
shall leave Germany’s mighty state,
fully capable of defending _ itself
against aggression, whereas in ut-
terance after utterance of the leading
English statesmen the idea is put
forward of establishing a new re-
gime, under which, through some
form of international co-operation, a
repetition of the stupendous calam-
ity that has befallen the world will}
be made impossible.—N. Y.
